A quick follow on Dale’s post. I just wanted to direct attention to the nice posting from demfromct at dailykos on pandemic preparedness, emergency response, and related matters. A recent post addressing the National Response Framework included this choice graphic on pandemic flu authorities and responsibilities that seemed too good to let slip past. Note the dead bird in the upper left. (What is going on with that bird exactly? Maybe just resting? Hanging upside down? Etc.) Dynamic org. charts of emergency response certainly have come a long way since U.S. Civil Defense in 1950.
